What are the key recommendations made by the ICRP?
Key recommendations by the ICRP include: 1. Dose Limits: Setting permissible dose limits for different groups, including workers, patients, and the general public. 2. Optimization: Ensuring that all exposures are kept as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA principle), taking into account economic and societal factors. 3. Justification: Ensuring that any decision that alters the radiation exposure situation should do more good than harm. 4. Protection of vulnerable populations: Special considerations for children, pregnant women, and those with higher radiation sensitivity.
